A guide to great places near The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara

  1. Bar at Bacara Resort

    The crispy chicken sandwich and the Bacara burger are both really good. I highly recommend. The chicken lettuce wraps are fine. Don't get the seared ahi tuna (tacos) - tasted very fishy.

  2. Ocean House

    Great service- the chocolate parfait and the custard with berries were delicious!

  4. Miró at Bacara Resort

    Amazing Sunday champagne brunch! Also splurge for dessert…VERY worth it!

  5. Angel Oak @ Bacara

    Food of first course was mediocre. Noise levels made going past first course was impossible. Headache to last well beyond the sour taste of a bland meal. Manager the furthest thing from accommodating.

  6. Miró

    Their wine cellar has 12,000 bottles! Lots of rarities at decent prices.

    67 m from hotel

  7. Blend

    Surprisingly good sandwiches. Both the breakfast sandwich on an English muffin and the afternoon Pomo panini are great.

    88 m from hotel

  8. The Spa At Bacara

    Spa amenities free for guests: sauna, eucalyptus steam, indoor jacuzzi. Saline pools! Total luxury!

    96 m from hotel

  9. Venoco Main Gate

    141 m from hotel

  10. The Bistro

    Delicious food and great ambiance.

  11. Haskell's Beach

    Love it. Tar, rocks, seaweed...but this is the central coast and not some typical over crowded boring SoCal beach. Perhaps I'm biased.

    390 m from hotel
    8301 Hollister Ave

  12. Evergreen Park - Evergreen Open Space

    Frisbees, golf, beer/booze, friends, exercise, 9th hole is a fun break. And there's a "15% off deal" @ Hightide (corner of anacapa and Gutierrez) if you mention the 10th hole. (Frolfer discount)
